Before we start, let's take a quick look at the supported versions and prerequisites you'll need to move ahead.
NOTE:
Only Linux and different flavors of Unix are supported currently.
The list of supported versions are as follows:
JDK/Java |
1.6 version onwards |
java –version should show java version "1.8.0_31" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_31-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.31-b07, mixed mode) |
Remarks Check whether JAVA_HOME is set or not. Using echo $JAVA_HOME should point to the Java lib in your machine. |
Open a terminal window and run the following command:
wget http://lilyproject.org/release/2.4/lily-2.4.tar.gz
This will copy the latest lily tar file.
Run the following command:
tar zxvf lily-2.4.tar.gz
This will create a folder containing all the files and libraries that will be used as we go.
Now let's go to the folder where your lily-2.4 directory is created.
Lily requires JDK1.7 onwards version...
